FIFA 16 servers down with April 7 maintenance shock

We have an important message for FIFA 16 players now, as you may have noticed that FIFA 16 servers are down right now on April 7, 2016 for maintenance.

EA has sent out the message on social media that FUT will be down for a massive 6 hours of maintenance. It started at 6am UK time, meaning that you won’t be able to log in until 12pm UK time on Thursday.

For those in the US, that relates to 10pm Pacific Time to 4am in the morning so make sure you are aware of that.

We know not everyone uses Twitter so we just wanted to make sure you knew about the maintenance.

If you were in the middle of a FUT Draft, you may have just been kicked out of the EA servers which is obviously frustrating as it means you lose all of your progress and coins.

Do you wish EA had a system to compensate for lost items during maintenance or at least prevent you from losing progress in the first place?

We doubt free packs will be available, but give us your thoughts on the 6 hour maintenance below.
